In this class, you’ll create the lovely Midlothian Shawl, by Dee O’Keefe. This is a great pattern for those who want to take on their first lace project, as well as those wishing to learn to read charts. This pattern features both written as well as charted instructions. If chart reading is new to you, having the full written directions makes it a breeze to become a chart reading master.
Midlothian was designed to be a lovely and relaxing knit for both newer lace knitters as well as more experienced knitters looking for a stress-free project suitable for TV or social knitting.
For best results, solid or tonal yarn made of natural fibers is recommended.
